Robin Williams and why he matters to me. By now I am sure everyone knows that Robin Williams has died, it is a sad thing and many people have been effected by it. I for one am deeply sadden by this. Don't think I only care because he was a great entertainer and was the funnest person ever, while all those are true that is not why it as effected me so much. I would have to say without him I might not have ended up where I am today. Before there was Germany, before there was Circus Mojo, even before Circesteem, there was Robin Williams. I always remember seeing him in things and laughing so much and thinking hey I want to make other people feel like this. Having people roaring with laughter and crying, I was just young and hadn't thought of a way to do it and then circus came along and of course people laugh at clowns so it was perfect, and then as they say the rest was history. I had always wished I could meet him so I could thank him for that and I thought I had time to do so, but I didn't. I think he has been the only person to die in my life that has actually made me cry. (I haven't really had anyone die in my family). I have read an interesting post about his death and suicide about how funny people tend to be depressed but very few people realize it and I looked back on my life and yeah there were times I would say I have been depressed but luckily since I have come here I haven't been at all. I have to say I will be sad for sometime about his passing, and how he went. He was my first idol and he led me here, so I have to uphold his memory. I will honor him on my facebook page for sometime and keep his memory alive, I will pay tribute to him always and try to invoke his spritit whenever I can. He was a great man, actor, entertainer, and human being and even though I didn't know him personally I will miss him much and I think the world will be a little less funny without him.

What a fantastic tribute. I don't think I've read any tribute better than yours.
